Pickup Man

Third Rock From The Sun, 4 minutes

Pickup Man

Lyrics

Joe Diffie

Well, I got my first truck when I was threeDrove a hundred thousand miles on my kneesI hauled marbles and rocks and thought twice beforeI hauled a Barbie doll bed for the girl next doorShe tried to pay me with a kiss and I began to understandThere's something women like about a pickup man

When I turned sixteen I saved a few hundred bucksMy first car was a pickup truckI was cruisin' the town and the first girl I seeIs Bobbie Joe Gentry, the homecoming queenShe flagged me down and climbed up in the cabAnd said "I never knew you were a pickup man!"

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hillAnd I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de VilleI've got an eight-foot bed that never has to be madeYou know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgatesI met all my wives in traffic jamsThere's just something women like about a pickup man

Most Friday nights I can be foundIn the bed of my truck on an old chaisse loungeBacked into my spot at the drive-in showYou know a cargo light gives off a romantic glowI never have to wait in line at the popcorn standCuz there's something women like about a pickup man

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hillAnd I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de VilleI've got an eight-foot bed that never has to be madeYou know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgatesI met all my wives in traffic jamsThere's just something women like about a pickup man

You can set my truck on fire and roll it down a hillAnd I still wouldn't trade it for a Coupe de VilleI've got an eight-foot bed that never has to be madeYou know if it weren't for trucks we wouldn't have tailgatesI met all my wives in traffic jamsThere's just something women like about a pickup man

Yes there's something women like about a pickup man
